WEST DIVISION

FALMOUTH 3, BOURNE 2
The top-seeded Commodores brought home all three of their runs in the first two innings before proceeding to ride a solid team pitching performance to get the win. Regular season save leader Zachary Brzykcy struck out the side in the ninth to slam the door for Falmouth. The Braves will look to keep their season alive at home with game two at Doran Park on Saturday at 6 pm.

WAREHAM 8, COTUIT 7 (10 innings)
The Gatemen looked to be in complete control after a six-run first inning, but Cotuit battled back quickly, taking a 7-6 with a six-run explosion of their own in the fourth inning. Wareham tied the game in the seventh and walked it off on an infield single by Trey Lipscomb in the 10th. Game two will take place at Lowell Park Saturday at 4 pm.


EAST DIVISION

HARWICH 1, CHATHAM 0
The Mariners came out on the right side of this pitcher’s duel and made history in the process, as pitchers Connor McCullough and Joe Boyle combined for a no-hitter. McCullough picked up the win, throwing six no-hit innings, while Boyle recorded the save with three perfect frames. With momentum on their side, the Mariners will try to finish the series at home, with game two at Whitehouse Field coming Saturday at 5:30 pm

Y-D 7, ORLEANS 6
The Red Sox looked to be in complete control heading to the bottom of the ninth, as two runs in the top of the frame gave them a 7-1 lead. But the Firebirds battled back, pushing across five runs and loading the bases with two outs before Oscar Carvajal got a groundout to allow Y-D to hang on for the win. Y-D will have a chance to advance Saturday, with first pitch for game two scheduled for 4 pm.
